About Head Chef Stephen Sullivan

Stephen who hails from Dublin Studied Professional Cookery at ITT Dublin and obtained a Degree in Culinary Arts ITT Dublin while training at Chapter One Restaurant and the Merrion Hotel in 2010. Stephen worked his way around the kitchens at the Merrion Hotel for 6 years and was ultimately promoted to Sous Chef position. He then went on to work at the Shelbourne Hotel as Restaurant Sous Chef. From there Stephen moved into the role of Restaurant Head Chef at the Westbury Hotel Dublin in 2012.
In 2013 he was involved in the hotel opening at the Marker Hotel Dublin as Executive Sous Chef, and moved on to Executive Chef at Hayfield Manor in 2014.

Stephen is delighted to be part of the team at the AA Hotel of the Year. “One of the reasons I moved to Cork was because of the abundance of Top Quality Producers. All my suppliers are on my doorstep, I can get anything from Fresh Duck Eggs, Boar, Venison, Fish, Cheese, Wild herbs, Fruits and Honey all from local guys around the corner. I want to support these and showcase them throughout my menus, and hopefully portray some of my own personality too. There is loads of energy and ambition here at the Maryborough and I’m glad to be apart of the Management team. We have lots of exciting plans ahead introducing new menus and food concepts and I’m really looking forward to great times ahead”.
